Wilderness preservation plan faces defense concerns
The American National Callemens Assn said a national wilderness preservation system would seriously affect national defense. Denver executive secretary Mladford Hall told a House Public Lands Subcommittee that protecting the stockpile of atomic bourbs matters more to eastern residents than preserving a Wyoming hillside. He warned the legislation could hamper the administrative economy of lands now managed by public agencies. He cited Four Corners mining regions as areas likely to be closed to exploitation, noting the stockpile material comes from there. Foresters and land use experts urged integrated multiple use management. The American Forestry Assn called the plan unnecessary and unwise, while the National Lumber Manufacturers Assn urged balance to avoid undue gains for few. House and Senate bids would set aside about 37 million acres as wilderness.
